Bobby Brown is already a free man. He’s out of jail, already. So much for that 55-day sentence … guy didn’t even last 55 hours in there, or even close. Despite turning himself in to jail for his third DUI conviction (and second in just seventh months), he just served a grand total of NINE HOURS in jail. He checked in at 9:58 a.m. Wednesday and was out by 6:58 p.m. An L.A. County Sheriff’s spokesperson said Brown would likely serve nine days of his 55-day sentence, but due to jail overcrowding , this is what happens. Days … hours … who’s counting, right? Brown is on four years probation and has to attend alcohol education classes for 18 months. If he screws up, back to jail he goes … for a few hours. On the plus side, it’s clear that the legal system is not just a joke when it comes to Lindsay Lohan never serving any sort of actual punishment. On the down side, it’s a joke in general.
News of Lindsay Lohan’s plea deal puts her one step closer to a comeback. Back in February, I wrote that if Lohan could avoid going to jail over charges of reckless driving and lying to police and reinstitute some self-discipline into her life, her raw performance in Paul Schrader’s The Canyons could mark the beginning of her redemption as an actress. Details of Lindsay Lohan’s Plea Deal As of this afternoon, Lohan can check off that first box on what could be the path back to a productive acting career worthy of her talent. As USA Today reported, she and her legal team, led by Mark Jay Heller, struck a plea deal with prosecutors in which the Herbie Fully Loaded actress will do 90 days in a lockdown rehab facility and 30 days of community service. She’ll also undergo psychological counseling for 18 months. The newspaper reported that, following Lohan’s court date, Heller told reporters outside the Los Angeles Superior Courthouse, “I am very confident that you won’t be seeing Lindsay Lohan in any criminal courts any time in the future.” He also explained why Lohan took the plea deal: “At the conclusion of this case, Lindsay will have a completely clean record. And I think that’s an extremely important element to this case.” The Canyons Director Paul Schrader’s Reaction To LiLo’s Sentence When I first heard about the outcome, I emailed Schrader to get his reaction. When I interviewed him for post I wrote in February, the Affliction director hinted that he was interested in working again with Lohan. (The New York Times reported that Schrader was interested in casting in the lead role for a remake of Gloria, — about a mob moll and a six-year-old boy being chased by hitmen and law-enforcement officials — that originally starred the great Gena Rowlands.) The filmmaker’s response was cautiously optimistic. Schrader wrote he and his wife, actress Mary Beth Hurt, had dinner with Lohan last week at Minetta Tavern in Greenwich Village. Lohan, he wrote, “saw the film again and is enthusiastic to promote it. There will be international festival appearances in the future which she hopes to attend. We also discussed future work but, for now, we wait and see how the plea bargain plays out.” One Lingering Cause For Concern: Lindsay’s Dad, Michael Lohan Sounds promising. Now, if only Lohan could put more distance between her and her attention-starved father who seems to have no shame about turning his daughter’s legal woes into a press opportunities for himself. Here’s what USA Today reported about Daddy’s post plea-deal performance: Heller was quickly chased away from the press conference by Lohan’s father, Michael, who was present during the hearing. Michael Lohan then took to the microphones and proceeded to bash Heller, accusing him of not keeping Lindsay posted on negotiations. Michael said that Heller needs to “stop using Lindsay to make money and a name for himself.” However, the actress’ father did say that the sentence to rehab would probably be a good thing for her. Papa Lohan is doing a bit of projecting here. Someone should get him a muzzle.

I’ve never seen the Star Wars movies…..I know….how can a guy this socially awkward, who runs a website…and sits on a computer all day…not watch virgin nerd shit….I mean everyone from the late 70s saw the shit…but I was too poor to go to the movies and didn’t give a fuck then and don’t give a fuck now…. But I do love me a good conspiracy theory…and I do know that people like you are really into Star Wars and this shit will be fucking porno to you and that is why I’m sharing… The things I do to keep you assholes happy….is beyond me.
I am still a fan of Lindsay Lohan. I think she’s got serious potential and good things will eventually come her way….because let’s face it…she’s Lindsay Lohan…and herpes or not…I’d love to smear that vagina all over my face… I was really hoping her sentence would lead to her in jail. I figure she could use the time out of society, and since she’s already a lesbian…or was a lesbian…she’d be in heaven…like on set of a lesbian porn scene…. With all celebs breaking the law, she got off easy….90 days in a lockdown rehab facility….30 days of community service…..18 months of therapy…. If only all people with her record got treated this way…breaking the law would be a lot more fun to do….but not all people are celebrities and don’t get that preferential treatment… I’m just hoping she doesn’t die….cuz I’m into her…or at least her tits..and think they have a few more years in them…. She’s just a broken girl…and I don’t think this is really news….but I’m posting it anyway…cuz I like to live and breathe all things Lohan….when I remember she exists…like on sentencing days like today.
Troubled star Lindsay Lohan missed her scheduled flight to Los Angeles last night, despite a court date she is required to attend looming Monday a.m. She must be there in person or a bench warrant will be issued. The actress was supposed to fly back at 9 p.m. EST last night but skipped it, opting to stay at a club in New York to see a band called City of the Sun. She is now scrambling to get a flight to L.A. later today. Let’s just say that her track record with flights is about as good as her history behind the wheel, or with guys, or with movies ever since Mean Girls . It’s not a sign of her taking the court date seriously, even as she faces eight months in jail at least if convicted of lying to police and/or violating probation. Then again, would you expect anything better with her?
The infamous celebrity hackers have claimed a new victim: Octomom. Guess they’re defining “celebrity” pretty loosely as time goes on. The celebrity hackers , who struck this week and last, may be just targeting any individual who is remotely infamous or potentially hateable at this point. It’s certainly not about using the info to steal money in broke Octo’s case. Nadya Suleman probably has like no credit. Talk about a bad ID theft target! Most of those who were hacked have reason to sweat, though. The personal financial information of a shocking number of stars and government figures has been exposed. Even Michelle Obama was hacked . Other victims include: Mel Gibson, Lindsay Lohan, Kim Kardashian, FBI Director Robert Mueller, CIA Director John Brennan, VP Joe Biden, Tiger Woods, Mitt Romney, Beyonce and Jay-Z. There may be more. According to reports, the hackers’ website – where they’ve posted a lot of the stolen information and people have even “used” some of it – has a thing for Dexter . Vigilante justice. Doing away with bad people. That sort of thing. Maybe they just saw the Octomom porn and were repulsed.

Justin Bieber is taking at least some of it back. Not long after posting an Instagram rant in which he laid into the press for all its negativity, scoffed at suggestions that he should enter rehab and bragged about his success, the singer has apologized for including Lindsay Lohan in his diatribe. Bieber concluded his post by telling all the mean girls “comparing me to Lindsay Lohan [to] look at her 2012 tax statements.” But he then went online and removed that section, releasing a statement that admits it was wrong to go after Lohan’s finances. “My post was only up for a few minutes but I realized right away that what I said at the end was wrong and distracted from what I was trying to say,” Bieber said, adding that he “immediately deleted it and rewrote it so it would show that I was really feeling.” And this is what Justin wrote instead: “All this isn’t easy. I get angry sometimes. I’m human. I’m gonna make mistakes. In gonna grow and get better from them. But all the love from you guys overcomes the negativity. I love u. Thanks.” As you might expect, Bieber’s fans are staunchly in his corner. They have put together this video to show their support: Justin Bieber: In His Own Words
Lost amidst the fervor of Justin Bieber’s no good, terrible, very bad 19th birthday was this: The singer was once again spotted out in London with Ella-Paige Roberts Clarke , a 17-year old British singer with whom Justin has been spending A LOT of time. And adding fuel to the pair’s dating fire is this: on Saturday, Clarke posted the following video to her Facebook page. It’s a mash-up of Bieber’s “As Long As You Love Me” with Rihanna’s “Diamonds.” What does it mean?
